I was given mine in the eighties working in the port of Amsterdam @ a stevedoring company.
I'm not that tall, not very shy either.
The oldest guy in charge / supervising the loading/unloading of the vessels started calling me Brutus and soon everybody did.
Since brutus.com was allready taken I got brutuz.com and changed my nickname accordingly.
How did you get your nickname or why did you create yours?

| Inside family joke. Uncle's cat was named Fritz and we always use his name for emails and signing up for things. At one point Fritz T Katt was getting credit card offers. |

I've always been fascinated by the paladin character in fiction and it's been dealt with well very seldom. When I've played RPGs I tend to play the paladin and I'm an (unpublished so far) writer and have dealt with that character in a few places, thus, thepaladin. It's an "ideal" thing.   ......  |

For me it was a character from a series of books I've read, written by Ann McCaffery called the "Dragon Rider Series".
The character's offical name in the book is Lord Holder Jaxom of Ruathia, Rider of White Dragon Ruth.
If you like Sci/Fant books I HIGHLY recommend her works. Of note she has several major series besides the Dragon Rider's one. There's also the Pegasus/Rowan series, and the Planet Pirates series. |

Crosman140
Well, I use a couple of different names online. When I received a 1955 Crosman 140 as a gift a few months ago, it made me want to connect with other airgun enthusiasts. I've enjoyed airguns for 30 years or so.
So, when I found this forum, I just used the name of the gun that inspired me. |
